you weigh 250lbs?
ngmi feel the crush. it's exactly why I love OHP
220-ish these days, but yeah, that used to be bodyweight for me, lmao.
>it's exactly why I love OHP
there's no crush in ohp. you fail and the bar drops to the height of the pins
>OHP
>pins
coward
So you clean the bar every time? Good to hear you're moronic
2 plates per side
12 reps a set
3-4 sets
Single leg obviously.
5’10” 181lbs this morning.
WHAT THE FRICK IS A KILOMETER?
>single leg
go on? I never see anyone do this on the vertical leg press
I run a lot. Better to get single leg work in. It also works different parts of the leg. Get a lot more activation in the side of your ass doing single leg. Honestly surprised I don’t see more chicks doing it. Gotta drop the weight a lot at first.

Have not used leg press in a while, I hate the sensation of the sled, you're being crushed with no natural way to bail. also the pressure it puts on your core feels like hernia city. now use hack squat, failing that BSS
>crush
>no way to bail
The rails stop at a set point. It'll be hard to get out but it is possible.
4 a side
10
4 (first 2 sets have 3 then 3.5 on each side)

8 plates Till Failure (usually 8-10)
Then 4 plates till failure (usually 10-15)

8pl8 a side?
I appreciate that image. May I save it?
Also, take all these with a grain of salt since leg presses could have different leverages, so 8 plate on mine could be 6 on yours etc
you can save it but you may not repost it as your own photograph as it is copyrighted and not my intellectual property thoughbeit
still mirin 8pl8 m8 you humble dog you
Not the strongest legs but pretty much ottermode: 6'4 185
Can rep 5 plates each side for 12 with good ROM but I am dying by the end of each set. Could probably do more if I really pushed myself but leg press sketches me out
3 plates
8 reps
4-5 sets

full (moron) rom so that my glutes come off the seat at the bottom of the rep

Stopped doing them after I felt a pop that hurt on my right side.

I don’t do them because they suck just do squats seriously
I can't squat 2pl8 with decent stability I'm like a deer on ice but I can bang out 3x10 4pl8+ on the leg sled with full rom good form. What gives
Can DL 3pl8 btw
so, for reasons that should be obvious, your squat weight compared to your leg press weight should include your body weight. assuming you're about 180 these are nearly identical force outputs.
I am 180 that's amazing
do another magic trick yayayayaya
I can do 5.5 plates each side (220kg max for 5x5 sets).

12 plates per side using full range of motion (all the way down until it hits the safety bars and all the way up)

You homosexuals will never be able to do this because you don't eat and you have never made gains in your life.
This is me
While you might be somewhat right, I notice you left out your height and weight. Until then, I'll call you a fat powershitter manlet. Also only 1 set lmao
The leg press is an accessory movement. You do it after you squat. The point is to push your legs to the absolute limit using a biomechanically advantageous position with weight that would kill you if you tried to squat it. There is no reason to do more than one set if you are doing it properly.
You didn't even say till failure though? You get no volume, which is probably the leg press biggest advantage since its safer and easier to acheive failure. Plus "biomechanically advantageous position to push heavy ass weight" is dog shit. Its only easier cause theres no body weight/ different leverages. Its not like doing a safe but heavy af squat at all. Ur moronic and still didnt post height or weight. Stop replying to me you fat moronic homosexual ass pussy fart manlet
The squat is not ideal biomechanically. The spine did not evolve to have hundreds of pounds pressing down on it like that. That is why people snap their shit up and herniate their discs when they squat heavy weight. The leg press puts the stress on the hips in a way that is consistent with the way animals have used their legs for hundreds of millions of years.
The legs don't need volume to grow. Volume means nothing to muscle that is constantly being used. They need really, really heavy weight to grow. Every guy with decent legs will attest to that. And every little b***h with chicken legs who doesn't want to lift heavy will cope and pretend otherwise and say he has "bad genetics" or whatever dumb shit.
Low volume with very heavy weight. That is how you get your legs to grow.
can you say it again without sharting
7pl8 each side after a heavy squat session, for 8-10 reps (depends if I did more reps or put more weight on the squat). And that's because I used to train legs only once a week, I started doing them twice last week to focus on my hamstrings.
I always had good legs since I can remember, my nickname in my teenage soccer team was Roberto Carlos because I always had juicy legs and could kick hard as frick.
320kg x 10 x 3 (well rested, on a good day doing leg press as the first exercise)

I’m doing mentzer HIT
So basically I have all the plates I can find in there, beyond a certain point it ceases to matter. I’m dialed in now so that I only perform one singular rep. With assistance i unrack the sled, and I’ve already failed the concentric movement, I hold the iso for a moment, before I fail the eccentric with spotter assistance.
So I’m currently going to full concentric, isometric and eccentric failure on 1 rep and 1 set only. The prescription simply needs no more.
I was doing one set of one every 16 days, but I wasn’t seeing optimal gains so now I am doubling my rest to 32 days. For the leg press.
I will squat next, on New Year’s Eve.
as a modern fit poster im following the sulek progression. I load all the plates in the gym, do 12 quarter reps each worse than the last, and then repeat for 6 exercises every day. At the current rate I should be able to pin down a male gorilla in three weeks (currently been lifting two weeks). I'm getting really good at pinning

I could probably do more, but I worry about the weight crushing me on the down swing so that's all I'm comfortable doing.

OP asked specifically for your stats on this Matrix leg press
If you don't have this one your input doesn't matter it is not comparable.
